Rahul Gandhi delusional, says Amit Shah as Congress chief proclaims love for 'all living beings', PM Modi
BJP chief Amit Shah termed Rahul Gandhi delusional for proclaiming his love for 'all living beings'. In a tweet, Rahul Gandhi today said that he loves all, even those who have been temporarily blinded by hatred. "Hatred is cowardice. I don’t care if the entire world is full of hatred. I am not a coward. I will not hide behind hate and anger. I love all living beings, including those temporarily blinded by hatred," Gandhi tweeted. In his reply, Amit Shah said that Congress chief's statement was a fine example of delusion.
"Fine example of arrogance and delusion! Now he sees the entire humankind as full of hate, except himself of course. Get well soon Yuvraj!"
Earlier in the day, Rahul Gandhi had brought the house down when he proclaimed his love for Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
In a free-wheeling live interaction with over 5,000 college students at the Lakshmi Lawns in Hadapsar suburb here, Gandhi took wide-ranging questions from the gathering, largely pertaining to jobs, education, healthcare and some even personal.
Answering a poser from a student, he paused and said: "I love (Prime Minister) Narendra Modi. I really do, seriously. I have no anger against him. I love him. But he has anger towards me."
The comment was greeted with thunderous cheers and applause from the students, stunned even the hosts and the media, coming as it at the height of the Lok Sabha election season when both the ruling and opposition sides are firing poisonous darts at each other.
To another question on his favourite childhood memories, Gandhi thought for a moment and said: "It was with my grandmother (late Prime Minister Indira Gandhi). Before she would come home from work, I would hide behind the curtains, and when she arrived, I would jump out and scare her. I know (now) that she was not scared, but she always pretended to be scared."
